Scream Down At Me is not from any regular CC release. It was an early 80s vinyl b-side. Taken all by itself, one might not even realize this was even China Crisis, it is so different from their usual sound. Quite quirky and urgent sounding. They have a history of putting out b-sides that could stand up to many artists A sides. Quite wonderful instrumentals also, and they really do require pristine quiet to truly appreciate the beauty of some of them.

Hi Latebar.
I actually had gotten "Dockland" yesterday from BigBri for myself and I must have deleted it by mistake.
If he reads this and wants to post it, great.
Otherwise I will get it from him again and post it here.
And yes, I did email you. I don't know what happened.[?]

Understood. Ihave that 2CD collection. I meant to say it was not on any regular studio release, other than with that 2CD collection faeturing the second CD with all b-sides, or A-sides not from their regular studio CD's

[b]Ahhhh[/b]---nice to see all the [b]China Crisis[/b] action on this thread. As a seasoned CC fan, I am going to impart on you all a real rare CC[b] gem![/b] Lucky [b]you![/b]

This was the B-side to [b]'The Highest High"[/b], and it took me ages to find this mp3.....[b]GREAT[/b] little instrumental called [b]98.6[/b] (which may or may not be an actual radio station - if anybody has any insight to the title - lemme know)...[b]super happy[/b] and really captures CC's studio time with [b]Walter Becker[/b] (Steely Dan Fame)...here'ygo!
